To synthesize a Ugi Product following the EXPLAN005 . The compound will contribute towards a library for Falcipain2 inhibitors.
This compounds was ranked 29 in the DEXP014-V1B file from D-EXP014 . The purpose of this experiment is to synthesize an anti-malarial compound based on the inhibition of falcipain-2, as described in this summary post.
This experiment is a repeat of Experiment 176 to make sure that I also got a positive result, because every other experiment I have attempted failed to dissolve/ form a precipitate.
This experiment demonstrated that I could successfully produce a precipitate from a control Ugi reaction that is known to have a positive result. This also supports my theory that the solubility of phenanthrene-9-carboxaldehyde is dependent on the amine. Furfurylamine has an oxygen in the ring, which increases its reactivity and allows it to participate in hydrogen bonding, thus making it soluble in methanol.
Conclusion
Experiment was successful with the formation of a precipitate. Experiment proved that I am completing experiments correctly. A further discussion of the apparent amine selective solubility of phenanthrene-9-carboxaldehyde is presented here.
